Default The Ultimate Driving Machine? I think so.

Nice video on the Science Channel last night.

The Ariel Atom, with a 200+HP/1300 lb. HP/WT ratio, is the shizzle (sez I).

See for yourself: Ariel Atom

I e-mailed them back about a year ago, they still send me stuff. I think the only place to get them is out west somewhere like Oregon for the U.S.. The start around 55k and go way up for the blown one like 80k or so. I thought I was going to be looking at something like an Elise but this thing is freaking quick and expensive. I know we always think about modding but you wouldn't need much in one of these.
